I had some difficulties in the vegetative phase with this passarello strain so even if late I applied a series of techniques to maximize the harvest. I applied a late topping, I did LST on the lower branches and I elegantly widened them and topped x 8 in the center. By doing so the center came out a bit weakened because the power went to all the branches below (that's why the main lining is better), but by eliminating some branches that would not have reached the top I obtained an excellent result, there are really many buds and a result that will exceed 100 grams by a lot I think going closer to 150 grams. The flowers are very beautiful, nice mature pistils, large calyxes, this plant has really large calyxes that make it a bit difficult to clean or rather it is easy to cut some calyxes here and there. But the grass is so much you can easily make sense of it. The smell is wonderful I still have to go into more detail but it seems something strawberry, sweet, I'm still trying to understand what it reminds me of and I have to study the terpenes and terpene profiles better. The trichomes are mostly milky but we honestly have little amber still and a bit of transparency, it could have been another week probably but that's fine. Zamnesia Strain Description // Yes, Karen, you read that right. Load up a bowl or roll a joint and kick back with Karen Kush, our indica-dominant hybrid. This breathtaking strain was created when our skilled breeders crossed Monster Bud Kush and White Widow. As expected, both parent strains rose to the challenge and passed on their most prized traits to their progeny, such as a solid THC level (24%), great yields and a relatively fast flowering phase. - Get a seed of this fantastic strain --- https://www.zamnesia.io/it/10780-zamnesia-seeds-karen-kush.html The plant has eaten the 100% Organic feeding of Plagron: Alga Grow and Alga Bloom as basic nutrients, the rooting Power Roots, the amino acids of Sugar Royal, the Enzymes of Pure Zym that eat the dead parts in the soil, Power Buds that always gives us immense satisfaction with rapidity of start of flowering and composition of the buds, the legendary Green Sensation that now needs no introduction, a name a guarantee.

Super soil Diary update 20th Feb 2020 So another week bites the dust and it's time to update again. I let the soil dry out within the pot for three days because it had been cooler and I was concerned that I had been overwatering. When I did give her a drink it was 10Lof Rainwater mixed with some Mollasses and ph'd to 6.5. I also gave her some epsom salts and I also finally got around to doing the worm warm, so All of my Photo strain girls got aprox half a kilo of fresh worm castings each. I have some more "high tea" bubbling away (see above video) that will be given to the plants later this week. After all that the soil should be very happy and hopefully this will pass onto the Wifi in the form of fat buds. Remember keep your soil happy and your plants will be happy too. Cheers for checking out this weeks update If you liked it please leave a like 👊👍

Week 4 in the Pink Rozay journey has been a whirlwind of green magic, and I can't wait to spill the photosynthetic tea on all the juicy details. First off, the Pink Rozay has officially joined the Scrog Club! I introduced a Scrog net into the mix, and let me tell you, it's like giving our girl a VIP ticket to the greenest party in town. The benefits of a full canopy are immeasurable. It's not just about looks – although a sea of green is a sight to behold – but it's also about maximizing light penetration and promoting even growth. It's like orchestrating a symphony where every bud gets a front-row seat to the light show. And speaking of light shows, a new rockstar has entered the scene – the Future Of Grow 600W full spectrum LED. I've officially joined Team Future Of Grow, and let me tell you, this light is rocking the place like no other. It's like having a botanical disco in my grow room, and Pink Rozay is the star of the show, basking in the glory of that full spectrum goodness. Thank you F.O.G for bringing me on i fell truly humble and blessed <3 <3 <3 Now, let's talk foliar fun with Aptus Holland's NutriSpray. It's like giving Pink Rozay a spa day, but for her leaves. Here's a quick NutriSpray how-to: NutriSpray can be used regularly or to treat deficiencies in case of a nutrient lockout. Always dilute with water. Use 2 ml per 1 L of water and spray the entire leaf surface. Indoor growers, spray during weeks 1, 3, and 5 of bloom for general nutrition. Outdoor folks, spray 1 week after planting, then once a month until harvest. And what's in this magical elixir, you ask? Organic surfactant Horse chestnut extract Microelements: Manganese (Mn), Sulphur (S), Zinc (Zn), Iron (Fe) How does NutriSpray work its leafy wonders? Horse chestnut extract binds to microelements, making them available to the plant. It creates a protective shield, keeping nutrients on the leaves for up to two weeks. It thins vascular fluid, ensuring nutrients are transported faster. This is it for me : Corrects deficiencies faster than root feeding. I Spray mother plants a week before cutting clones for healthier cuttings. I Spray cuttings weekly for a protective shield and available nutrients. I Always spray with lights off to avoid burning, not always but for the most or at least i dim them down to 10%. Its good to leave the lights off for 20 – 30 minutes after spraying. So here we are, ready for the next week and cruising down this green road with confidence. The Pink Rozay is thriving, and the journey continues. As always, a massive thank you to Aptus Holland for being the backbone of my growing success. And to Future Of Grow for illuminating my grow room with that dazzling LED. The future is bright, indeed!

The buds on this plant seem very nice and tight, a nice purplish bud colour started to develop during the 48 hours producing some very pleasant looking buds.

Serious week of stacking and buds packing on weight 🤙 5 of the Glueberry are covered in crystals already and some have plenty of red hairs already... And it's only day 63 completed 😁 The other Glueberry and Mazar are defo 2 r 3 weeks behind the others, but their both Huge and absolutely stacking up 😎 Cause my grow space is now like an absolute jungle 🌱🌿🌱, other than feeding them, its very difficult to get good individual photos of them. I reckon there's 2 weeks left on the 5 Glueberry and another couple weeks after for the last gberry and Mazar, but only time will tell

8.03.2022 Proceduto al taglio e al lavaggio delle infiorescenze al 63 giorno di fioritura. Ottimo il risultato finale, in uno spazio di 1,2 m² ho prodotto un raccolto di 540 gr di cime secche e rifilate pronte da fumare💚 Con i ritagli delle foglie e dei fiori più piccoli sono riuscito a tirare fuori un po di kief di prima qualità. Aggiornerò tra qualche settimana con il rapporto sul fumo, dopo che avrò fatto maturare e ruttare le cime in barattoli di vetro.🙏💚

🌸 Week 7 Flower – Crystals, Aromas & Monster Buds Welcome, friends, to the final pre-harvest chapter for our Mango Kush sisters. Week 7 Flower is where everything comes together: weight, density, aroma, and frost. And let me tell you — these girls are absolute monsters. ⸻ 🌱 The State of the Sisters • Pheno #1 – The trailblazer. Her colas are enormous, dense, and sparkling like snowy peaks under the lights. The macro shots reveal a glittering layer of trichomes, covering buds, sugar leaves, and even little fan leaves near the canopy. She’s showing phenomenal resin production, and her pistils are thick and curling. • Pheno #2 – The younger sister, but catching up fast. Her buds are dense and sticky, the frost is appearing more heavily, and every macro shot reveals the same dazzling crystal coverage. She’s slightly behind Pheno #1 in maturity, but don’t be fooled — she’s a true powerhouse in her own right. The smell in the room is so strong that if it weren’t for the carbon filters, we’d probably be calling the fire department thinking someone baked 100 mango pies at once! 😅 I mean the frost on these buds? Looks like Mother Nature had a snow day in the grow tent — pure white crystals everywhere, like the plants are wearing winter coats in July! ❄️ ⸻ 🔬 Trichome Watch – Macro Details Week 7 is all about trichomes. Here’s what we’re seeing and monitoring: • Clear trichomes: Still present, mainly on the lower bud sites, indicating some time left before peak potency. • Cloudy/milky trichomes: The majority of bud surfaces are now showing full milkiness, a sign of peak THC potential. • Amber trichomes: Small percentages on the tips of pistils — this is the first sign of cannabinol conversion, giving the slightly more sedative effect. 🌱 Educational takeaway: Trichome inspection is the golden key to deciding harvest timing. Macro photography helps us see nuances invisible to the naked eye. We’re aiming for a balance: mostly milky with a touch of amber for that perfect Mango Kush high. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition At this stage, feeding is minimal but precise — we don’t want to push excess nutrients, only support the plant as it finalizes resin and bud density: • Just water lol the rest they can find in soil and else were Educational takeaway: Week 7 feeding is about support, not growth. The girls have all the energy stored; now we just help them transform it into resin, aroma, and density. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment • Temps: 28–30°C, slightly warmer in the canopy under heavy buds. • Humidity: 50–55% — perfect for trichome development. • CO₂: 620–650 ppm, steady, helping photosynthesis and sugar production. Observation: Trichome production loves a slightly drier mid-to-late flower environment. Too much humidity can reduce resin and promote mold on dense buds. ⸻ 💡 Lighting The lighting orchestra is still performing beautifully: • ThinkGrow Model One → penetrating the canopy • ThinkGrow ICL-300s → mid-canopy perfection • Future of Grow Black Series 600W → full-spectrum balance • Lumatek Zeus 465W Compact Pro → evening out footprint Result: every bud site is kissed by light, maximizing sugar leaves and resin density. ⸻ 🔄 Recap – Seed to Here For anyone joining now, here’s the full journey of our Mango Kush sisters: 1. Seed germination: Smooth, fast, with Aptus Start Booster. 2. Vegetative stage: Strong branching, two phenos selected, transplanted into super soil + Aptus Mycor-Mix. 3. Early Flower (Weeks 1–3): Pistils forming, Power Buds introduced, lighting expanded, TrolMaster ecosystem established. 4. Mid Flower (Weeks 4–6): Bulking, simplified nutrition, aroma starting, trichomes appearing, All-in-One Liquid and CalMag adjustments. 5. Week 7: Buds heavy, frost everywhere, aroma exploding, trichomes mostly milky with hints of amber — the final week before harvest. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect ✅ Expect: • Buds heavy and dense, needing support • Aroma extremely potent, filling the tent • Trichomes mostly milky, some amber • Sugar leaves sparkling with frost ❌ Don’t expect yet: • Complete amber conversion (full sedative effect) • Final cured aroma or flavor (only post-harvest) Educational takeaway: Week 7 is the climax of flower maturation. Now is the time to inspect, support, and admire — patience will yield the perfect harvest. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude To the GrowDiaries community: thank you for joining this journey from seed to near-harvest. The sisters have taught us patience, observation, and joy in every stage. To the gear: TrolMaster, ThinkGrow, Lumatek, Future Of Grow with the Black Series — thank you for letting the plants reach their full potential. 💚 Grower’s Reflection: These girls are monsters, monsters of beauty, resin, and aroma. Every macro shot shows why we love this process. And yes… if it weren’t for the carbon filters, we’d probably be evacuating the neighborhood from sheer Mango Kush smell! 😅 Frosty, dense, magical — week 7 Flower is everything I hoped for. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📌 P.S. – About the Timeline A quick note for clarity: Mango Kush #1 and Mango Kush #2 are slightly offset in their flowering timeline — there’s about a week difference in their development. For the purpose of GrowDiaries, this Week 7 Flower report combines both sisters to provide a full picture of the tent and the ongoing bloom. While Mango Kush #1 is slightly ahead, and #2 a bit behind, this report reflects both in their mid-to-late flowering stage. Why combine them now? GrowDiaries updates are sometimes tricky, and combining the sisters allows us to share their progress together, making it easier for readers to follow the story and observe the similarities and differences. 🌱 Rest assured: When harvest comes, we’ll present a complete follow-up report covering harvest, dry, trim, cure, and smoke review — highlighting each sister’s unique traits and final results. Honesty is part of the journey, and transparency helps everyone learn and apprecilove the full picture. 💚 Growers love to all 💚
